The tone and structure of this reminded me a lot of The Hate U Give. I'd recommend this highly if you were invested in that story. the book is inspired by a real, horrific event that has been repurposed to talk about the Islamophobia that is upsettingly still so prevalent in the US.
This is an amazing book. It's also a hard one to get through if you are white. Yes, it's about race. It's also about privilege. I put it alongside books like Thirteen Reasons Why.
Hollow Fires, and Samira Ahmed, will make you think about your actions and how you treat others. It will open your eyes and ask/ponder the challenging questions about living in the United States and what being a good citizen means. And for me, living in this day and age is worth it.
Do yourself a favor and read it. Recommend it to everyone you know. And let's all strive to make lives better in the States.
